Movie Info

New parents Mac (Seth Rogen) and Kelly (Rose Byrne) move to the suburbs when they welcome an infant daughter into their lives. All goes well with the couple, until the Delta Psi Beta fraternity moves in next door. Mac and Kelly don't want to seem uncool, and they try their best to get along with frat president Teddy (Zac Efron) and the rest of the guys. However, when the couple finally call the cops during a particularly raucous frat party, a full-scale war erupts.

Audience Reviews for Neighbors

  • May 31, 2016
    For me, this adult v youth, responsibility v freedom theme worked great and showed Zac Efron really coming into his own. The play between Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen and Zac Efron was amazing. The comedy was crude but well used and the slapstick comedy of all of the airbag gags were great. While this film doesn't touch the "college comedies" of the late 90s-early 00s and of course the 70s and 80s, it holds its own and could remain memorable.

    This has some seriously funny moments. Worth checking out for some good laughs, although it's definitely not for everyone.

    Just awful. I cracked a smile maybe twice.

    I found it moderately amusing. Seeing Rogan play the "grown-up" his characters are always forced to become is a little strange, yet appropriate given his age. The concept of putting him into conflict with a younger generation is solid enough, I just wish more had been done with it.
